The tactical vote to stop Reform in Makerfield is Labour - Andy Burnham

It's time to come together and stop Reform once more!

"In Gorton & Denton, the tactical vote to stop Reform was for the Greens - and we said so. In Makerfield, the tactical choice is clearly Andy Burnham. He has the best chance of stopping Reform this time, and that's why StopReformuk.vote are recommending progressive voters in Makerfield lend their vote to Andy on 18th June."
— Tom de Grunwald, Director of Forward Democracy

The majority in this country isn’t small – it’s just divided.

The recent election results gave us a clear warning: our broken voting system allows a minority to win power on a fraction of the vote, simply because the rest of us are fragmented across different parties.

In a row of 6 houses, if 2 coordinate and 4 don't, the 2 win every time. We think it’s time to stop letting the minority decide the future for the rest of us.

We have joined Compass to demand that party leaders put cooperation above short-term gains. It’s time for "tactical reassurance."

Stand with the majority. Sign the letter: https://forwarddemocracy.com/neighbourhood

As it stands, there is a very real risk of Reform winning in this seat as the rest of the vote is largely split between Labour and Green. We are urging Labour, Lib Dem, and other party supporters who do not want a Reform MP, to lend their vote to the Green Party this time. We have carried out extensive research, and it points to this being our best chance of stopping a very real threat from Reform.
